Sea surface salinity (SSS) is an important tracer for monitoring the Changjiang Diluted Water (CDW) extension into Korean coastal regions; however, observing the SSS distribution in near real time is a difficult task. In this study, SSS detection algorithm was developed based on the ocean color measurements by Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) in high spatial and temporal resolution using multilayer perceptron neural network (MPNN). Among the various combinations of input parameters, combinations with three to six bands of GOCI remote sensing reflectance (Rrs), sea surface temperature (SST), longitude, and latitude were most appropriate for estimating the SSS. According to model validations with the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) and Ieodo Ocean Research Station (I-ORS) SSS measurements, the coefficient of determination (R2) were 0.81 and 0.92 and the root mean square errors (RMSEs) were 1.30 psu and 0.30 psu, respectively. In addition, a sensitivity analysis revealed the importance of SST and the red-wavelength spectral signal for estimating the SSS. Finally, hourly estimated SSS images were used to illustrate the hourly CDW distribution. With the model developed in this study, the near real-time SSS distribution in the East China Sea (ECS) can be monitored using GOCI and SST data.
